I feel like I've been living in Trumps presidency longer than a month. It feels like a fucking lifetime, and what a cluster fuck of a month it's been. The impromptu press conference was something out of bizzaro world.

I'm enjoying the book. The time and perspective jumping can really fuck with you. It'll be perfectly fine for a few paragraphs and in the next one jump in time or character abruptly and go back. It makes it hard to keep it. Also, the change in from 3rd to it being written like a police report or an omniscient narrator whose reminiscing or contemplating the many moves a character could make in a certain scene send you for a loop.

I've read bits and pieces from the new Flintstones. I was caught off guard by its commentary on war veterans, PTSD, and loss of ethnic identity.

Who knows indeed. I'm still a Mexican citizen and a permanent resident here. My wife and I are worried that if something shit goes down with Mexico and the wall, that there might be a ban or more lock downs on immigration from Mexico. I also wonder how it's going affect the Mexican economy and my family who still lives there. This has been a cluster fuck of a week.

Yeah, but this level of populism and racism has been seen before in American Politics. It's just more exuberant and open. http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/03/goldwater-jackie-robinson/474498/ http://www.wnyc.org/story/recent-history-electoral-skulduggery/ http://www.wnyc.org/story/corrupt-bargain-started-it-all/ EDIT: one of my favorite articles on Trump https://newrepublic.com/article/124803/donald-trump-not-liar

It's amazing what's happened these last couple days: Cruz dropping, Trump saying Cruz's father was part of the JFK assassination and now Kasich suspending his campaign making Trump the presumptive nominee. I feel like Bizzaro world has invaded the GOP and US.

Speaking of Wheatley, he's remaking Wages of Fear. I didn't know how to feel about it at first, but now, I'm really excited to see it.

Man, yesterday had some high highs and low fucking lows. I went to a place called the Merc (a gay bar in Sacramento) with my friend to have a few drinks and relax. Now, I'm not gay and I go there with my friends (some who are) because it has great drinks and atmosphere. So I went there and we met and talked to two guys next to us. They were old gents and they were funny dudes. One of them keeps hitting on me hard and hinting at sex. Fair enough, I turn him down and tell him I'm straight and why I come here. He has no problem with it. As the night progresses, he keeps touching my knee and thigh. Not in a sexual way, but touchy messy way. Whatever, some people are touchy-feely and he knows where I stand. At one point he moves up my thigh and starts touching my dick and I just freeze. I am completely uncomfortable and violated. And he does it once again. I'm completely fucking violated. I'm frozen and can't talk. So after the second time, I say it's time to go and get food with my friend. I felt skeevy and uncomfortable the entire night. I could still feel his hands on my dick and it's been on the back of my head ever since. I felt like I should have told him to stop touching me when he touched my knee. Maybe it's my fault for being at a gay bar (though it's become a mixture of orientations). I don't know how to feel and I felt like crying a bit this morning. Maybe I should have been more forceful? I don't know. Am I crazy? I set up boundaries and I'm okay with touchy-feely people (one of my good friends is one). I thought that was he was at first, but fuck. I can't get this incident out of my head.

OOOOOOHHHHH SHIT! Rome came out with a new album I'm such a fanboy If anyone is interested, I highly recommend Flowers From Exile, Passage to Rhodesia and Nos Chants Perdus

Don't see the appeal of Snapchat. I just don't get it. Maybe I'm just getting old and cranky.
